pedals, which to buy?
Im looking into buying new pedals because my old snafus are not very grippy and when they are wet they are quite slippy. the question is, which pedals would be best. I mainly ride street and trials, can someone suggest a good, cheap set of pedals? the two I was looking at are 'Qu-Ax Magnesium Pedals' (http://tinyurl.com/32tjve) and 'Odyssey Jim Cielencki Pedals' (http://tinyurl.com/2emarn) suggestions would be great, thanks. -- sp4rky-m4rky you may be lucky but you make your own luck *)--360--O* The Unispin Elite )---'O, Crankflip my 'video' (http://youtube.com/watch?v=yuOL9aOUKP4) learning 180 or 360 unispins? watch my 'video tutorial' (http://youtube.com/watch?v=gFCHDO1umlM) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sp4rky-m4rky's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14270 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61247 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I ride with the Jim C's and they're great.

I very highly recommend the Hoffman Sole Mates. They have absolutely perfect grip, have a nice feature where you can't strip your pins, come with two pin lengths, and require no modification if you want a grind plate. -- maximus unius dunawan wrote: usually always ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maximus unius's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13699 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61247 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

thanks for the quick response I have found the hoffman solemate pedals in the UK for not much more than the jim cs and for less than the qu-ax. has anybody used more than one make? if so could you compare them? also how grippy are the jim cs and hoffman and how many of the pins are replacable on both of them? thanks for your help. -- sp4rky-m4rky you may be lucky but you make your own luck *)--360--O* The Unispin Elite )---'O, Crankflip my 'video' (http://youtube.com/watch?v=yuOL9aOUKP4) learning 180 or 360 unispins? watch my 'video tutorial' (http://youtube.com/watch?v=gFCHDO1umlM) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sp4rky-m4rky's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14270 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61247 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

The pins on the Hoffman's are more replaceable than that Jim C's. The pins on the Hoffman's screw into a nut that is removable that sits in the pedal. If you strip the pin holes on the Jim C's, you can't use that hole anymore. If you strip the pin holes on the Hoffman's, you just get a new nut, which is like $0.03. -- maximus unius dunawan wrote: usually always ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maximus unius's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13699 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61247 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I am thinking about getting some Solemates for my qu-ax. They seem to have a fairly big platform on them, so I would assume that they would make it easier to land things. -- Matt_V -Matt *)--360--O* The Unispin Elite My YouTube Vidoes 'CLICK' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=mattvandermeulen)'You are invited' (www.lost.eu/3c846)Click this My msn: - Add me if you wish "What you do is.. is what you do.
